What a cool funky name for an Italian joint - Capo & the Spritz. I was expecting to walk in & find some cool daddy Italians sitting at the bar chatting away in Italian. LOL. Located at the bottom of the uber chic Opus Hotel, this spot is a reincarnation of a former night club. Capo is the pizzeria that uses sourdough bread to make their pizzas. The Spritz is the bar that celebrates Italy. The interior & exterior are all very inviting. The interior is laid out reminding everyone of all things Italia - decor, pictures, greenery etcetera. It made me want to go back for dinner. Our waiter was cordial & made great suggestions. I had the Campanella Amatriciana with prawns. It was very tasty. I celebrated Friday afternoon with a dear friend & an Italian Margarita - cin cin. read more

I had a lovely lunch here today with a friend and for sure I'll be back! This restaurant is located on the ground floor of the posh Opus hotel, on the corner of Davie and Mainland. There is a swanky lounge area to the left of the front door, between the restaurant and the lobby, and there is a great looking bar and bar area located in the restaurant itself. As for the restaurant interior, it gives off sunroom-like vibes, as so much natural light comes in from the windows on two sides of the restaurant, and the airy, open space. My friend ordered a cocktail and a pasta dish and he enjoyed both. As for me, I had the Ortolano bowl and man, was it good! Very fresh ingredients, and the portion size was huge. I ended up taking more than half of it home (bonus! No cooking for me for dinner!). I thought the prices were decent for the food, and the service was wonderful, too. My friend and I were slow to order, as we were chatting and catching up on a lot of news, and the servers never rushed us or pressured us to order. Same for after we were done, as we lingered some. I know at night this place is illuminated with arresting purple lighting on their facade. It's hard to miss! This would be a swell place to go for a late night cocktail or bite. I think they have a good happy hour, too. Their specialty is their pastas. Great place! read more

Convenient Yaletown location, we visited on a Sunday night and had no problem finding parking. Our group enjoyed a corner table tucked away with just the right amount of privacy. We were all warmly greeted and seated, asked if we need anything right away. I've been to this location in the Opus Hotel many times over the years under different names, I think the ambiance and decor have the right touch for a pizza/pasta wine bar vibe. Our group ordered pizzas and pasta, all were good and arrived quickly. Service was solid, friendly and warm. The food prices are reasonable and the portions are substantial. I would visit again. read more

We live here in the summers and this is one of our favorite places. We dined here multiple times last year and had our first dinner of the summer here last week. It did not disappoint! They have one of the best gluten free pizzas I have ever had. My husband enjoyed his meatballs as well. Staff is always accommodating and super friendly. We will be back again and again! read more

The pizza here is exactly how it should be, amazing!! The crust is PERFFFFECTT. Their classic pepperoni is made with cup pepperoni which makes it crispier and a little bit greasier. The salad was great! Full of bold flavor and a great dressing. The drinks are tasty and strong. The service was great, our waiter wasn't pushy and gave us plenty of time to finish our drinks. The restaurant itself is really nice, especially on a warm day when everything is opened up. All in all, the food is great, you can't go wrong. read more

Located inside/part of Opus Hotel. Only had breakfast since we were in Vancouver for a short 2-day trip. Space seemed majestic yet calm and beautifully balanced with photos and artwork on the walls. Service was great. Tasty breakfast food. The iced latte was delicious, which was unexpected. read more

A great option for Italian food in the area, particularly for drinks and antipasti. We started with the Burrata and Prosciutto di Parma with Gnocco Fritto. This dish was the standout of the meal. The gnocco fritto (fried dough with Parmesan) was a delicious surprise--crispy, savory, and something I hadn't tried before. The prosciutto and burrata were fresh and flavorful. The burrata was creamy, drizzled with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and seasoned with s bit of salt and pepper - simple but perfect, which is exactly what Italian cooking is! The pickled onions added a nice zing to the dish. 10/10--absolutely loved it! We also shared the Hot, Hot, Hot Pizza, which was also excellent. It had the perfect level of spice without being overwhelming. The mozzarella was freshly grated on top, and the tomato-based sauce had a bit of spice to it as well, very yummy! While it's not my *absolute* favorite pizza in the city, it's certainly a solid choice with quality, fresh ingredients. We also had a few cocktails that were great. It's worth noting that they have limoncello and a few other flavors, I believe they are made in house. The restaurant has a modern vibe, with part of the dining area adjacent to open-air windows, giving it a light and airy feel. They also have outdoor seating when the weather allows. The service was also great, friendly and attentive throughout the meal. I was throughly impressed by this hotel restaurant; it exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be back! read more

Headline: Above average Italian food in a somewhat confused space in an excellent location. It's a giant space, when you enter there's tons of room and different areas (lounge, bar, dining). It has the feel of a fine dining experience but then there's flat screens everywhere which really distracts from the vibe. Is it fine dining? Is it a sports bar? It feels like they got a great location and are trying to capture every type of customer. That said, the food was really good and we loved the service. read more

Ate here last week with parents, aunt and uncle. Mom and Aunt needed gluten free and were accommodated perfectly with pasta and pizza choices that were delicious. Had a fantastic Caesar salad to start, zingy and cooly crisp. Uncle had the 13 layer lasagne and loved it! Dad had a combo "gluten full" pizza. I had a perfect Cacio e pepe: simple and delicious! Wines were 50% off so we had 2 fabulous champagnes. What a wonderful meal! In addition, our server was sweet and so attentive. Will be back! read more

Came here with a friend for brunch since we were in Yaletown. Really like the venue and ambience. There was a small outdoor seating, the lounge, or dining room area. Tables were nicely spread out from each other. We chose the dining room area with a great view of the outdoors. My friend had the nicoise salad while I had the egg's benny. The salad was good and the egg's benny was done a bit differently. Both were great, but did not stand out for me. read more

Made a happy hour stop here while in Vancouver. I was so excited they had a variety of spritz's. I got a limoncello one and my husband got and orangecello one. I wish mine had had a stronger lemon flavor. We also grabbed some snacks - olives and gnocco fritto. The gnocco were delish - fluffy, fried pastry pillows! I'd go back for them in second! Not a bad stop for happy hour in Vancouver read more

After receiving a kind of reception from Craffles up the street that would deter any appetite, we decided to ditch it and go else where. We literally stumbled on CAPO...and they had brunch.....ok here we go. As we walked in I noticed a warm and excited smile from the hostess and the place smelled like Jasmine flowers....it was so lovely first thing in the morning, and to our relief the place was shining it was that clean...like you know....someone had cleaned it the night before closing...something that apparently and sadly is going out of style these days....anyhoo.....moving on.... What can I say....it was eggs and bacon and they were cooked perfectly. How can you get eggs wrong?....oh you can.... We asked for extra crispy bacon and that shit was so good that I almost ordered an extra side of it. The West Coast Salmon also was cooked beautifully....the whole thing. Just try it. So, having grown up in Switzerland I know my ROSTI and these guys brought that back for me that morning. I can still taste the butter and the crisp with the gently graded potatoes without any grease.....oh yeah. The service was one of the best I've had in a while. All three ladies were professional, friendly, attentive and just great. Oh...you'll see me again. read more

Wanted to try a new place and came to Capo & the Spritz. Ambience was nice and it was busy. However the food was quite disappointing. Everything was lacking in flavour and it's definitely not authentic Italian. It was also pricey for the quality of the food, although portions were decent in size. Would come here more for drinks and snacks rather than a full meal read more

We celebrated NYE and enjoyed dinner and breakfast here. Both times, service was wonderful and food came out quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and breakfast.

We had a lovely evening at Capo & The Spritz while visiting Vancouver! We enjoyed a delicious meal, especially the calamari and chicken piccata. As recommended by Federico, we chose a fantastic Italian chardonnay to accompany the meal. Nicole provided wonderful service! Capo & The Spritz is a nice spot with a great neighborhood vibe! read more

We come here once in a while for snacks. The service is always friendly and chill, and there's always room for people. I usually order their pizzas, but tried their fried garlic bread with bomba sauce, which was INSANELY delicious. I will go back just for that! Their autostrada meatballs were... ok. Nothing special. I tried their Cacio e Pepe and wow, it was so bad I couldn't even eat it. Ever have a picky 5 year old that will only eat boiled noodles with a bit of butter and just the barest sprinkle of cheese? Well, that's what this is, but they charge you something like $24 for this watery pasta that might at best have a tiny bit of pecorino in it. Our excellent server took it off the bill. To compete with Cactus Club across the street with their 50% off bottles on Tuesdays, they also had that option, so we went big on a lovely bottle of wine. While the meatballs and abysmal pasta were disappointing, I still really enjoyed my time and will go back because the service was stellar, the vibe is great (not too busy, and very friendly), their fried garlic bread is fantastic and the 50% off wine special is awesome. read more

The amazing reviews made me stop by. Strolled in with no reservations and was hoping for a fest, and it was "um" the rest of the meal. I got my pick, and I choose my seat near the entrance of the kitchen. I had to ask for my water and asked another staff for my server, every asking is another asking for my server. Which resulted to allot chains to actually get one task done. All I can recall from this visit was, tons of asking, allot ice in my drink, and allot of dough. Aperol Spritz $6 On the positive it was in nice glassware, presentation is nice, tons of ice, but tasted like nothing. Coca Cola $4 each glass Served in a mini stemless wine glass with 70% ice and filled up to the 89% level. 4 sips. 1 sip is $1. I had a "refill" that I asked for in the middle of my meal and came at the end for another $4 charge. They keep it classy here by not telling you. I did mention this when she asked while paying what I thought of the meal and I told her "anyone ever mention how tiny the colas are served in". She laughed. Fried Dough with sauce $5 Supposedly, this was suppose to have the mild taste of cheese. I couldn't even detect salt in it. The sauce was a little spicy, with lack of flavour. The presentation was nice. pass. Rebel Pizza $12 The crust/ dough was lovely, the middle was soggy. I wasn't even able to pick it up and fold it. It disinagrated into the plate. It was a hot mess. I liked how they sliced the juicy pineapple so thin that it bled. For the size, it's too much for one person and it's better as a shared item. Capo Sauce $1. Best add on ever! This is their house made "ranch". I wished it was listed somewhere.... Squid Caponata $12 Beans were really nice, squid was soft. This is enough for 1-2 ppl. The fried sage didn't taste like anything... which is weird bc I hate sage. The sauce was oily and light, wish they added some tomato paste then it'd be almost an A. Starter of the Day "Fried Rice Ball with mushroom and cheese" $5 I'll pass, flavourless again. Mushroom was too tiny and where is the punch of cheese if one serving is one ball? Overall, Known for their beautiful glassware, with tons of ice in signature drinks. Fully staffed but not all trained to assist. My server was overworked, but it was frustrating to watch from where I was seated, Im also frustrated for me as I tried to get assistance. Not the best first impressions for me, as there are so many consistent restaurants nearby. I spent $60ish dollars for one person at happy hour and there wasn't much than dough and ice I can remember, and the long waits. I'd have better bang for my buck at minami, even at the keg at regular price, I can get better protein and carbs for about the same amount. ummm read more

We were craving Italian food on a Saturday night an discovered this place via Yelp. Everything we ordered was on point and the service was friendly and prompt. Drinks: The sangria was not too sweet but would have liked it to be more fruity. Also ordered a tequila cocktail with passion fruit which was refreshing but definitely on the sweet side. Appetizer: Ordered the Caesar salad which was perfect and refreshing for a warm day. The lettuce and croutons were fresh and crispy and came topped with some anchovies. The dressing was nice and just enough. Entree: Ordered the classic pizza which is topped with olives and pepperoni. The pepperoni was nice a slightly burned which I'm a big fan of. The crust was also crispy. We also ordered a pasta dish which was good. Dessert: Tiramisu was excellent and served inside of a small ceramic bowl. read more

Prices are rather high but that is pretty par for the course in Vancouver. The food was decent (pasta, salad - maybe they could have left out all the balsamic on the burrata) and came out pretty quickly. The issue was with seating. We had a reservation but there were no actual tables inside. They led us (with minors) into the bar area where there was an uncomfortable table very high off of the floor, then we asked for a regular table and were seated on some hard benches outside. It was an uncomfortable and expensive experience that could have been remedied if they had honored the reservation. read more

Stopped by for a drink with friends. Got seated at the bar immediately and was served promptly. Aperol spritz was tasty - it's a classic. It does get quite warm inside though. read more

I'm a huge fan of Kitchen Table group and Capo is no exception to this rule. Their pizzas and pastas are expertly crafted, the environment is beautiful and the service is consistently attentive and genuine. I paid them a visit this previous Tuesday for a long awaited catchup with a girlfriend over their happy hour offerings. We got two rounds of negronis, the braised squid, fried artichokes, mixed olives, and the snack of the day, which was a delightful arancini. The braised squid was my absolute favourite - tender calamari rings braised in a rich tomato brodo with kale and beans, perfect with some bread to sop it up. We also ordered a bottle of wine to keep the ball rolling and their wine list is a fantastic value - all bottles are half off on Mondays and Tuesdays so our Lambrusco was only $22.50 after the discount. The service team kept checking in on us throughout our meal, and even came by with a complimentary tiramisu near the end, which was such a kind touch. I would highly recommend Capo as an option for happy hour, a cute date night or if you're craving high quality Italian food in the Yaletown area! read more

I came for happy hour on a Friday. Not crowded at all from 3-5. Our server was really nice and attentive. Came at all the right times and was friendly. There are partitions between each table which I appreciate. I ordered the aperol spritz during happy hour - $6. Perfect amount of ice. Didn't taste watered down at all. Not too strong. Rebel pizza - $12 (during happy hour). Good amount of toppings - prosciutto etc. Without being overly salty. Very chewy dough which I enjoyed. But just a smidge too burnt for me on some parts of the dough. Some parts were perfectly burnt but others were completely black but other than that I really enjoyed the pizza. Would I come again? Yes I want to try other items on their happy hour list. The price is reasonable and the restaurant has a very relaxed ambiance. read more

I came to this restaurant on a weeknight for a friend's birthday with about 10 people. The service was great and the vibes were amazing. It was a cute and classy Italian feel while providing a cozy atmosphere. My only complaint is that the price was terribly expensive for the quality of the food. Portions were small. I tried the cacio e peppe which was good but not worth 25$ for a small bowl of pasta without any protein. I was not full by the end of my meal despite having a 70$ bill including drinks and dessert. My recommendation is to come here for a quick drink while bar hopping or before visiting somewhere else for dinner. read more

Stopped by for HH on a Saturday and sat at the bar. House wine (white and red) decent and well priced for HH. Aperol Spritz reasonably well made - no sofa water but didn't really need it. Meatballs had good flavour - over cooked but sauce (bit sweet) managed to make sure they weren't dry. Rebel pizza suggested with pineapple. Not a big fan of the non cured prosciutto which was fatty and some pieces inedible. Pineapple was thinly sliced and delicious. I would ask for pizza not to be cut next time as it ended up quite soggy. Service was ok - staff more focused on prep than guests but wasn't terrible. Like everywhere, probably struggling for labour. Room is elegant and nice. For HH, prices were good and as mentioned well chosen reasonably priced wines and cocktails. read more

I came in with a few friends for a pre-dinner drink and snack. The inside isn't huge but they fit in a sizable amount of seating without feeling crowded. Everyone working there was helpful and attentive with patience as we contemplated the drink menu! The cocktails were delicious and there were several appetizers we were torn between. In the end we tried the artichokes and the bread twists. Both came in sizable portions that were a perfect appetizer or group snack. Two items was perfect for us but it would have been easy to add on a small pizza to share for a heartier fare. read more

This is the best pepperoni pizza in Vancouver. Coming from NYC I was worried I wouldn't find pizza as good as the big apple. After trying over 20 different places, Capo is the best. I prefer mine without the olives. Love the food, the experience the service. I do wish they didn't have the TV on as I think it takes away from the experience a bit, but I understand why they leave it on. Thanks Capo! You make my week every week. read more

This place must have had a change of management - good luck with that! I visited a week ago with family including my 8 year-old granddaughjter. She ordered a plain pasta with olive oil and Parmesan cheese. The waiter first said that they didn't have cheese and then came back and said that they had Parmesan but there would be an extra charge. The final bill included a $3.00 charge for cheese. This is a disgrace to all Italian restaurants read more

I love the space of this restaurant, and the service wasn't bad either. Just don't go for the food. Everything was either too salty or bland. For the price you'd expect more. I probably won't be back again. read more

My first time here and I was blown away! My friend and I were craving Italian food and wanted to checkout a place that we haven't tried before, we decided to call in for a reservation and they were happy to take us in - we also called to check because my friend has a severe egg allergy and they actually had pasta made without eggs which is so hard to find in the city. We got there on time and of course they checked our proof of vaxx, the inside of the restaurant is so cute, cozy and clean, they also had tvs inside if you wanted to watch a game and they're connected to the bar in the Opus hotel. The bathroom is a bit weird it is downstairs of the building and the stairs are a bit creepy like "The Shining" movie lol. Anyways, we made it in time for happy hour (3pm-5:30pm) so we decided to get the margherita pizza ($10 HH, $20 regular) which was such a good deal and my friend got the house white wine for $6 HH. We were both pretty hungry so we each got our own pasta - I got the bucatini cacio e pepe and my friend got the bolognese with bucatini noodles (since they were the eggless noodles). When the pizza came out, we were so surprised at how big it was, especially with the happy hour price. The pizza was sooo delicious, perfect tomato sauce, not too salty or acidity and the fior di latte cheese was so good. I loved that the pizza was thin crust, crispy and chewy and we even had leftovers for later. Then the pasta came out and it looked absolutely amazing! My friend's bolognese sauce pasta had so much meat and she said it was so flavourful, the cacio e pepe I got was really good too, a bit on the heavier side as there was some grease leftover in the dish but it wasn't a huge problem as it was still delish. Overall, I definitely will return to try more items on the menu, we each paid about ~$35 and left with leftovers too! read more

I visited this restaurant with my family and we sat at one of the outdoor tables. The waitstaff were attentive and kind and the ambience inside was very nice (including the bathrooms!) I had high hopes after looking at the menu but was disappointed in many aspects. While the cucumber salad was flavorful and creamy, the gnocco appetizer and Margherita and mushroom pizzas lacked flavor. It was very disappointing because the texture was perfectly doughy, crispy, and amazing but it left us waiting for flavor that didn't come. I would come back for the ambience, lovely service, and a salad, but unless something changes I would not order the pizzas again. read more

I went last week as they had happy hour, $6 beer is really a half beer, so not really a deal, but the pizza was good. Went back yesterday and they raised their prices by at least 30%. If $8 for half a beer is happy hour, time to move on. I understand raising your prices, but by over 30%!!!!! Unfortunately I won't be back. I acutally recommended to it friends last week, but now I have to un-recommend it. read more
